[Incubator] Motion: Project Terra Draw community project initative

[Nick Bearman]

(I think I can formally propose this, tell me if I am wrong and it 
should be Jody as Chair!)


I would like to make the following motion:

 > Motion to include Terra Draw project in OSGeo community initiative

The repository is here https://github.com/JamesLMilner/terra-draw and 
meets our OSGeo
community initiative checklist (thanks Regina)

The motion is held open for two weeks until 24th September.


Angelos Tzotsos
Arnulf Christl
Bob (CI-StPaul) Basques
Brian M Hamlin
Daniel Morissette
Dimitris Kotzinos
Frank Warmerdam
Jo Cook
Jody Garnett (chair)
Michael Smith
Nick Bearman
Regina Obe (+1 from 28th Aug)
Steve Lime
Tom Kralidis


Best wishes,
Nick.
